The 3rd edition of the Developmental Neural Networks Workshop will be held as a part of ALIFE 2020. You can find all presentations and articles below and we encourage participants to watch all videos before the workshop or during the first section of the workshop, which will be a communal viewing of the presentations with discussion on Slack. The second part of the workshop will be a live discussion session in Virtual Lecture Hall B, starting with a dedicated Q&A session for each presentation and ending with a panel discussion on developmental neural networks.

Throughout ALIFE, please come discuss this workshop and topic in the #workshop-DevoNN Slack channel.
